Sustainabilitytransformation, governance, ethics, law /[electronic resource] :by Felix Ekardt. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2020. - ix, 312 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Environmental humanities: transformation, governance, ethics, law,2524-5708. - Environmental humanities: transformation, governance, ethics, law..

Chapter 1. Foundations in natural science, economics and epistemology: problems, categories, strategies, and the issue of growth -- Chapter 2. Transformation to sustainability: an innovative perspective on societal change - with and against sociological, psychological, biological, economic and ethnologic findings -- Chapter 3. Ethics and law of sustainability - especially of freedom, human rights, democracy, and balancing in a reinterpreted perspective -- Chapter 4. Politics and governance of sustainability - on climate, energy, agriculture and conservation policy instruments with a new focus -- Summary.

This book proposes a holistic transdisciplinary approach to sustainability as a subject of social sciences. At the same time, this approach shows new ways, as perspectives of philosophy, political science, law, economics, sociology, cultural studies and others are here no longer regarded separately. Instead, integrated perspectives on the key issues are carved out: Perspectives on conditions of transformation to sustainability, on key instruments and the normative questions. This allows for a concise answer to urgent and controversial questions such as the following: Is the EU an environmental pioneer? Is it possible to achieve sustainability by purely technical means? If not: will that mean to end of the growth society? How to deal with the follow-up problems? How will societal change be successful? Are political power and capitalism the main barriers to sustainability? What is the role of emotions and conceptions of normality in the transformation process? To which degree are rebound and shifting effects the reason why sustainability politics fail? How much climate protection can be claimed ethically and legally e.g. on grounds of human rights? And what is freedom? Despite all rhetoric, the weak transition in energy, climate, agriculture and conservation serves as key example in this book. It is shown how the Paris Agreement is weak with regard to details and at the same time overrules the growth society by means of a radical 1,5-1,8 degrees temperature limit. It is shown how emissions trading must - and can - be reformed radically. It is shown why CSR, education, cooperation and happiness research are overrated. And we will see what an integrated politics on climate, biodiversity, nitrogen and soil might look like.
